Cuba: A New History

Author Richard Gott Immensely readable, fair-minded and contemporary. Few modern works of history are written with such a blend of scholarship, compassion, and honesty. Anyone wishing to understand Cuba today need look no further than this book. It illuminates the island's revolutionary past as well as the most recent decades. It includes a concluding section which focuses on the post-Soviet years, and prospects for the future. Publisher: Yales University Press | ISBN no: 0-300-11114-2 | Year: 2004
